What Is Hemp Flower?
What, exactly, is hemp flower, and how is it different from cannabis or marijuana? Let’s start by defining terms:
- Cannabis: Refers generally to the plant Cannabis sativa. Secret Nature hemp flower is cannabis.
- Marijuana: The federally illegal drug “marijuana” is usually defined as cannabis products containing more than 0.3% THC.
- Hemp: Traditionally, cannabis has been called hemp when it is non-intoxicating.
- Industrial hemp: The 2014 Farm Bill created a new legal category, industrial hemp, to refer to cannabis products containing less than 0.3% THC.
- Hemp flower: Female Cannabis sativa flowers containing less than 0.3% THC.
- CBD flower: Female Cannabis sativa flowers containing less than 0.3% THC but high concentrations of CBD.
- CBG flower: Female Cannabis sativa flowers containing less than 0.3% THC but high concentrations of the non-intoxicating cannabinoid cannabigerol (CBG).
- Delta 8 flower: Female Cannabis sativa flowers containing less than 0.3% THC but high concentrations of either natural or artificial delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol (delta 8 THC)
Now, which questions can we answer about hemp flower?
• What is CBD hemp flower?
CBD hemp flower is cannabis that has been bred to be high in CBD and low in delta 9 THC. As long as it contains less than 0.3% delta 9 THC, CBD flower is generally considered to be industrial hemp, not marijuana. As a result, CBD flower isn’t usually scheduled as an illegal drug, leading to a thriving CBD hemp flower marketplace both at home and abroad.
Just like all other forms of cannabis, hemp also produces large flowers called colas at the end of its life cycle. These colas smell and look just like the buds that grow on marijuana plants. Even though the THC levels in hemp colas are less than 0.3%, some hemp strains now bear more than 25% CBD.
• Is hemp flower marijuana?
Hemp flower is often confused with marijuana, but it is not the same, and different products are made with each plant. Although hemp flowers may look and smell similar to regular THC-rich cannabis flowers, their chemical structures, cannabinoid content, and terpene profiles are quite different.
They may both be from Cannabis sativa, but the important difference between hemp and marijuana is the dominant cannabinoid. If the dominant cannabinoid is delta 9 THC, it’s marijuana, but if it’s another cannabinoid, it’s usually considered hemp.
• Is hemp flower legal?
Hemp flower is generally considered to be in a different legal category than marijuana due to the 2018 Farm Bill. The important difference between the two is that industrial hemp flower contains 0.3% delta 9 THC or less, making it non-intoxicating.
• Does hemp flower get you high?
Hemp flower WILL NOT get you high (the classic effect associated with THC). Even so, hemp flower users report relaxation and other mild effects caused by CBD and other hemp substances, fueled by a phenomenon known as the” entourage effect.”
• Does hemp flower offer the entourage effect?
The entourage effect is a widely supported theory suggesting that, when consumed together, the various components of the hemp plant offer effects that are greatly magnified and noticeably increased. Believed to increase the impact of the whole plant, the entourage empowers hemp to be stronger than the sum of its parts.
• Is hemp flower the same as CBD flower?
No, CBD flower and hemp flower are not strictly the same. All CBD flower is hemp flower, but some types of hemp flower contain cannabinoids other than CBD. Delta 8 hemp flower has recently become popular, for instance, and it’s considered to be hemp just like CBD flower if it contains less than 0.3% THC.
• How is hemp flower grown?
Hemp flower is either grown outdoors in fields, inside sunlit greenhouses, or inside completely enclosed indoor environments with artificial lighting and air circulation. Out of the three, indoor-grown hemp is the best-tasting, most attractive-looking, and, most importantly, most potent.
It takes time, effort, and dedication to produce the caliber of flower we grow whether you’re cultivating marijuana or hemp. Cannabis is a fickle species, and only with the right balance of wisdom and love can you bring the hemp plant to its true, crystallized potential.
• What is hemp flower used for?
CBD hemp flower effects vary from person to person. However, people tend to use hemp flower for the same reasons. Some people use hemp flower just to relax and unwind. Others choose hemp flower as a solution to serious conditions after taking a look at the research surrounding CBD and other non-intoxicating cannabinoids.
More than anything, however, hemp users are drawn together by a deep-set love for cannabis. There’s no reason cannabis shouldn’t be as personalized as cars and smartphones — pioneering hemp producers like Secret Nature are making the high optional while they elevate premium cannabis to an even better standard.
• What does the best CBD hemp flower look like?
High-quality CBD flower is frosty, dense, and has lots of orange-colored hairs called stigmas. The ideal stigma color varies from strain to strain, but lots of healthy looking hairs is a key sign of happy bud.
The crystals you see on hemp buds aren’t just for show — they contain the cannabinoids you want to ingest. The frostier your nugs, the higher the cannabinoid concentration. Without the right light and nutrition, hemp plants will grow thin and airy, so dense buds are also a sign of excellent cultivation processes.
• What are the best CBD flower companies?

If you went to high school between 1960 and 2010, you probably have memories of hastily hidden bags of… well, it looked a lot like oregano. The weed your brother smoked in his room with a towel at the door doesn’t hold a candle to the kind of premium cannabis flower that started becoming widely available when the first states legalized marijuana circa 2012.
At the same time that it became possible to breed marijuana with higher and higher concentrations of THC, it also became possible to grow hemp with increasingly greater amounts of CBD. Premium hemp flower is denser, it has more crystals, it has more hairs, it smells better, and it tastes better.
Everything about high-grade hemp flower is improved compared to the type of material producers were forced to work with even five years ago. In some cases, non-intoxicating CBD flower is grown better than the THC equivalent.
While even the biggest recreational marijuana companies only have access to the consumers in one state, online companies like Secret Nature can reach all 50 states simultaneously. More business means more investment, and more investment means better products. Secret Nature offers better hemp flower because we’ve pleased the most customers.
